Thanks so much for the ideas. I like the idea of making cards. It will also help me be less lonely if I'm thinking about the people that I'll give them to. I went to the store today and got some easy to prepare things from the super market. Early tomorrow I'm going to go back and get some of the healthy foods that really make it easy for me to eat well (i.e. salad makings, good dairy stuff, fruit). I've gotten so many ideas that I'm feeling pretty good about tomorrow. Thanks for the support.
